WASHINGTON, Aug. 8 An omin

taking President
Roosevelt's relief

to the majority
against his relief

PALI. MALLON
that such a political phenomenon
would develop sooner or later. This
la the first evidence.
It confirms the suspicions of po
litical wlsemen among the new deal
ers who have been fearing lately that
the four billion dollar relief barrel
would eventually prove to be a po
litical hazard rather than an asset.
The sensationalized defeat of the
Democratic candidate for congress In
one district of Rhode Island was only
part of the atory. Far more Import
ant. In the eyes of politicians here,
waa the statewide defeat of most of
the 17 public works proposals.
These were good projects, at least
a good aa the PYVA la offering In
any state. No boondoggling waa ln
rolved, except possibly In two pro
posals to build beaches, whereas the
te,te already has one of the best
beaches on the coast. The other de
feated projects, however, centered
around needed expansion of state
hospitals, reformatories., school and
auch things.
Instead of these, the voters favored
a comparatively small amount for di
rect relief of the destitute. They
were for relief, but not for spending.
And this happened In a state
where Idle mill workers comprise the
bulk of the vote, where maximum re
lief la needed if It is needed any
where. Explanations would fill a book. For
one thing, the new dealers mishan

Authorization to proceed with the

C. C. Hockley, PWA head at Port

Work will start some time next

laying of about two miles of new
pipe, and the drilling of several hun
dred feet of tunnel through the rock,
tapping a vast new resource of water
for the city. Tests of the water al
ready made show It to be as pure, if
not purer, than Medford's own.
Besides providing plenty of water
for Jacksonville's use. and giving ade

plenty of water left for small Irrtga
